2. Begin installation with the upper handrail. The handrail for the first two (2) steps should be loosely 

bolted to the first post and checked to ensure it is the right length. Excess length of the narrow end 
of the handrail may need to be cut off and a new hole drilled for connection to the top platform 
handrail. Use 5/16" x 1-1/4" bolts at the connections. Continue down the stairs installing handrail 
sections to the handrail posts. Extra force maybe needed to curve the handrail on smaller 
diameters. Refer to 

Figure 2U

 and 

Figure 2V

 below for connections.
